Query on existing domain mailboxes?
- Is there a way to run a query on all mailboxes and copy the resulting items I want to look for to a pst file? If so, how would I run a query to copy any items that contain @something.com and/or @somethingelse.com from all mailboxes on my Exchange system?

- You would have to pipe that:
so for example
Get-mailbox -Database DB1 | Export-Mailbox -PSTFolderPath y:\legal.pst etc. etc...- Marked As Answer byAllen SongMSFT, ModeratorFriday, November 13, 2009 9:17 AM

If this is 2003, you have to use Exmerge and then can only filter by attachment name, subject or date range... - Hi,
What is the Exchange version we are talking about here....
For 2003: ExMerge works great....
For 2007: http://msexchangeteam.com/archive/2006/12/18/431934.aspx
Nitin Gupta (gupnit) | MVP - Exchange | http://www.nitingupta.in/blogs - I spent a bit of time looking into the way this export-mailbox command could be created. What I cam up with was this:
Export-Mailbox -Database DB1 -PSTFolderPath y:\legal.pst -RecipientKeywords <@something.com, @somethingelse.com> -SenderKeywords <@something.com, @somethingelse.com>
Will that open up DB1, scan all emails from the domains listed above and put them into y:\legal.pst? I think it should wanted to make sure since we don't have a test exchange domain. - You would have to pipe that:
